"Master, don’t you have the power of the Netherworld within you? If you release a bit, maybe it will just follow you!" Little book thought for a moment and said.

"Can it be?" Mo Jiuli asked, somewhat doubtful of Little book’s idea.

"Master, you have to trust me, I know everything..."

"Little book, don’t make me remind you, there are actually many things you don’t know!" Mo Jiuli interrupted Little book, speechless.

"Tch... that’s because you, Master, are so abnormal, and the things you encounter are so bizarre!" Little book said, speechless.

"Let me try, you protect them!" Mo Jiuli decided to ignore Little book’s complaints and spoke to Di Minghan beside her.

"Be careful!" Di Minghan said upon hearing this.

"Mm, I know!" Mo Jiuli nodded and said.

Mo Jiuli looked at the massive black shadow in front of her and asked, "Shadow Ghost Beast, why are you here?"

"Hm? Human, you actually know me?" Shadow Ghost Beast asked curiously, not expecting Mo Jiuli to recognize it.

"Of course, but aren’t you supposed to be in the Netherworld? Why are you here?" Mo Jiuli asked while looking at the Shadow Ghost Beast.

"Why should I tell you?" Shadow Ghost Beast paused slightly before responding to Mo Jiuli with dissatisfaction.

It didn’t want to be here either; it wanted to return to the Netherworld. But it simply couldn’t go back right now. If not for helping the Master leave this place, it wouldn’t stay here. It missed the Master so much...

However, these humans don’t deserve to know. No one can compare to its Master.

Upon hearing this, Mo Jiuli realized that the Shadow Ghost Beast was not easy to talk to, so she didn’t bother wasting words. She flew directly into the midair, close to the Shadow Ghost Beast, and said, "My request is simple, form a contract with him, or I’ll kill you!"

"Foolish human, forming a contract with me is a dream, besides, no one but my Master can form a contract with me!" Shadow Ghost Beast said arrogantly.

"You have a Master?" Mo Jiuli asked in surprise, not expecting that this Shadow Ghost Beast already had a Master!

"Hmph... lowly humans like you aren’t worthy of discussing my Master!" Shadow Ghost Beast said with great disdain.

Mo Jiuli...

This guy is really out of line, so there’s no need to be polite...

Mo Jiuli channeled the power of the Netherworld within her. It was a gray force she rarely used, so she wasn’t very skilled at channeling it. Shadow Ghost Beast saw Mo Jiuli staying motionless in midair and thought she was scared stiff; it looked at Mo Jiuli with disdain and was just about to blow her down with a breath when...

Suddenly, a power incredibly familiar to it surged from within Mo Jiuli. While the Shadow Ghost Beast was in a daze, Mo Jiuli unleashed a gray force towards it, but the expected attack didn’t happen; instead, Mo Jiuli’s power hit the Shadow Ghost Beast and vanished instantly—or rather, was absorbed by the Shadow Ghost Beast...

Mo Jiuli was slightly surprised and puzzled about what was happening when a flash of black clothes appeared, and a fluffy thing flew into Mo Jiuli’s arms, crying, "Master’s Daughter, you are the Master’s Daughter. Wuwu, finally I’ve waited for you, wuwu..."

Mo Jiuli looked at the furry black ball in her arms with black lines on her forehead, and Di Minghan, seeing the Shadow Ghost Beast pounce into Mo Jiuli’s embrace, had his face turn completely dark...
